abstract a field experiment was conducted at plant pest and disease research institute in karaj,iran in 2005-2006 to determine the effect of low herbicide dose of clodinafop-propargyl on percentage of wild oat control, yield and economic return of wheat. the experiment included 2 wheat varieties (rooshan and niknejad (less and more competitiveness cultivar, respectively, 4 wild oat densities (0...

BACKGROUND When applied at the correct plant stage and dose, herbicides are highly toxic to plants. At reduced, low herbicide doses (below the recommended dose) plants can survive and display continuous and quantitative variation in dose-survival responses. Recurrent (directional) selection studies can reveal whether such a phenotypic variation in plant survival response to low herbicide dose i...

The interaction between environment and genetic traits under selection is the basis of evolution. In this study, we have investigated the genetic basis of herbicide resistance in a highly characterized initially herbicide-susceptible Lolium rigidum population recurrently selected with low (below recommended label) doses of the herbicide diclofop-methyl. We report the variability in herbicide re...

Use of efficient methods of weed control with as regards environmental sustainability as well as increased crop yield and also weed resistance to herbicides is essential. In order to, an experiment was conducted in 2012 in the Damavand jaban in Iran. Experiment treatments were compared in a split plot design by a randomized completely block design with 3 replication. The used variety of maize w...

in order to evaluate of using planting pattern for reducing herbicides dose in corn (single cross 704), a field experiment was conducted in 2007 at research field of collage of agriculture, islamic azad university branch of takestan. the experimental design was randomized complete block with 18 treatments and using factorial design with 4 replications. treatments consisted of corn planting patt...

in order to study of the effect of nitrogen source, operation method and weed control methods on weed biomass, yield and yield components of corn (zea mays l.) an experiment was carried out as split plot factorial based on randomized complete block design (rcbd) with four replications in shahrood university of technology. the treatments included weed control methods at four levels (hand weeding...

Phalaris brachystachys is a common and troublesome weed in winter cereals in Mediterranean countries. A deterministic model was developed to simulate P. brachystachys seedbank dynamics in the wheat-sunflower rotation, a commonly practiced cropping system in southern Spain, under different herbicide-based management scenarios: no herbicide application, full herbicide dose (standard rate) and two...
